Jordan Peterson's all-meat diet

cervical = neck

The trapezius muscles extend up the neck, and get a workout when you deadlift, since they contract to keep the shoulders in place. Still helps. :o

Plus, full body strength training increases HGH production, which helps increase bone density.

You don't think 23" is big enough for a neck? That is me in my avatar. I don't think HGH deficiency is a problem.

It's not a matter of how big you are now. It's a matter of how much working out you're doing now. This is the internet and no one has done a proper exam on you here, but the workout advice is sound advice in general.

How much of it is muscle, and how much is fat? How strong are the muscles, and how much work do they do?
 
The first week of any low carb diet is hell. The Keto people call it Keto Flu, I forget what Atkins called it.

I don't know. Probably, but sometimes things are easier to stick to if you just draw a line in the sand. Reduces the decision making process. Just simpler.
 
I've only seen him say that it helped him lose weight and feel better. I've never seen him say that it helps you lose weight and feel better. Have you?

Not personally. I think it could be a sloppy insertion by the editor. In fact, it is Mikhaila Peterson who insists on the value of the beef diet. There is no doubt she promotes it and even charges consultation fees.
 
What formal education in nutrition and diet do either of them have? I can't find a mention on the quick search I've done.

My recollection is "none".

This is a study with an n of 1 that was expanded to an n of 2 and no controls or procedures in place to give one any confidence in the data collected. Maybe we could come up with a word for that, like anecdote but plural. Not data, maybe stories?
